8/15 / 165.2 / Got up and walked my dog before work while the temperatures were still cool. Had a tough work from home day as the Internet was poor in my area today. Managed to get through and now I'll ride the Peloton before supper.
8/16 / 164.4 / Had a great Peloton ride last night and made lots of healthy food for supper and meals today. Had a smoothie for breakfast this morning which I haven't done in forever. Feeling good!

Friends coming for tiny potluck tonight. Should be nice, eating in the garden.

Dinner was lovely last night, and other than Ghirardelli brownies, all perfectly healthful food. It’s weird not weighing in every morning and not counting calories, but I am having DH record what I eat, I just don’t peek.

64 yr young F, 5ft 4 Round 196 ( my 128th). Thanks @QuiltingJaine.
Goal this round again is to lose. We go on holiday in 4 weeks! No binges, keep within calories & macros.Achieved goal weigh of 125lb in summer 2016 by losing 66lb and then gradually gained between 7 and 11 since then & didn't want to gain any more, It's took me 75 rounds to achieve my under 130 target; back to maintenance again!! But then I crept up again, so need to get back under 130. A healthy life style has to be a permanent way of life.

Day/Weight/Comment
8/15 139.4 – 7.98 miles walked yesterday & it was HOT !!!! Maybe in hindsight we shouldn't have gone during the middle of the day, but we kept hydrated. 2/3 exercise calories eaten back, need to get back to not eating many back!!
8/16 138.8 – 11.87 miles walked yesterday, 10 degrees cooler than yesterday! We so much need some rain, the gardens are desperate!! I have been watering with a watering can out of the rain butt, I drained the last dregs out of that last night!! It keeps being forecast, but I've been able to count the odd few spots that have fell !!! ¾ exercise calories eaten back.
8/17 137.8 – 8..63 miles walked, certainly not as hot, much more bearable, in fact a very pleasant temperature ! And lots of rain for the gardens. A third of calories eaten back; that's better and it shows on the scales.

ROUND 188-SW 179.2, ROUND 189-SW 180.2, ROUND 190-SW ?, ROUND 191-SW 174.4,
ROUND 193-SW 179.6, ROUND 194-SW 179.2, ROUND 195-SW 172.48/5: 172.4 not a bad place to start the challenge
8/6: 171.8 weight is "pre" everything. i usually weigh in after i've had coffee and water. haven't had coffee or water yet this morning, so i'm figuring i'm at least a solid 172 lbs.
8/7: 172.4
8/8: 171.8
8/9: 171.4 i am actually getting excited to see the 160's. maybe by round 197??? what an accomplishment that would be!
8/10: 171.8 had 1/2 a blueberry muffin from sams club yesterday. had the other 1/2 this morning. i knew i shouldn't have, but who can just leave a muffin top just sitting there!
8/11: 171.4 that muffin sent me on a carbohydrate binge. exceeded calories and days was primarily carbs and fat, very little protein. my indiscretions always takes a few days before they surface. wish it was cooler, i might have been able to walk a little bit of that off. this summer has been miserably hot. diet diligence for the rest of the challenge!
8/12: 170.2 the loss has confused me. after the carb. binge, i have mostly been eating fruits and vegetables. i did also have chicken wings, which i think i mis-calculated nutrition on (on the higher side) so i probably had way less calories than is healthy.
8/13: 172.6 and there is it.... my carbohydrate binge taking its vengeance on me.

SW: 171.8
Day/Weight/Comment
8/15: 171.8 I've seen this number so frequently, i shouldn't be surprised (and i'm not).
8/16: 172.2 not sure if this is from not drinking enough yesterday, or if it's because i've already eaten scrambled eggs and tomatoes
8/17: 172.2, 171.4, 171.2 take your pick. these are the options my scale gave me all within 1/2 hours time with no variable. do the spring scales do the same thing? ...back on topic....ate a maintain amount of calories yesterday, but it was high in carbs (ramen noodles). i did get to finally go for my walk! not as epic as the exclamation point implies. it was just a mile, but weight loss rate.

8/15 - 159.5
8/16 - 157.5
8/17 - 157.8 - Not bad for having enchiladas! I definitely expected to be up more from that. Maybe that 30 minute walk (1.75mi up and down hills) with the pup offset more than I thought. I've read somewhere that walking after a meal helps kickstart digestion. Anyone have any insight on that? My mind was so paranoid about sleeping through another alarm, apparently, that I woke up several times between 2:44am and my actual alarm. Feeling a bit sluggish, but I'm up on time. Drinking my electrolyte water and typing this to give myself a few minutes to wake up before hitting the rower for my pre-planned workout. BF wants to make chicken fajitas tonight so I need to run to the store during my lunch break which will also give me a chance to stock up on some healthier lunch items and snacks to get me through. At least fajitas have some colorful veg and aren't as break-the-(calorie)-bank as enchiladas. Plus there's nothing like the extra NEAT from a big grocery haul (walking a giant store, pushing an awkward heavy cart (which are made for people over 6ft, I swear, the handle is almost up to my shoulders and I'm 5'5!), loading into the car and lugging the heavy bags in the house after). Alright, off to punish myself on this rower (ahaha just kidding, I'm treating myself. It seems like punishment right now but after I'll be happy I did it and feel so much better) EDIT TO ADD: I'm happier now. 10 minute easy row followed by a 5 minute moderate/hard interval done twice. Now to stretching!

Previous Day's Comments8/15 - No hugs needed. Not quite enough water. Think BF and I ate something bad Saturday night as all day yesterday both of us complained of stomach cramps and pain. Dinner was carb-filled chicken alfredo with homemade cheesy bread sticks which didn't help anything but at least I got some food in the cranky stomach. My entire abdomen feels like rock hard abs but its ball-shaped haha At least today there's no cramping or pain so now I'm waiting for my body to recover from whatever it is causing the bloat. Definitely focusing on water today to help push along recovery. Woke up and got in a solid 20 minute hard rowing workout that left me dripping in sweat. I usually glisten or sparkle, but it was hard enough to make me actually drip sweat in my eyes. Not bad for a Monday morning coming from a girl who is NOT a morning person. Finished it off with a 15 minute flexibility Yoga With Adriene practice as I'm still dealing with a little stiffness and soreness in the hammies from last week's sprints. Not sure dinner and I didn't go grocery shopping this weekend so I'm low on fruits/veg. I have a few frozen items that can hold me over on lunches, though, and some leftover chopped bell pepper and strawberries. Will make a plan to stock up on frozen "emergency" fruits/veg next time I go to the store since our new freezer has proven itself to keep things very much frozen.
8/16 - Alright, here we go! Behaved well yesterday food-wise after all that hard work on the rower first thing. Glad to see this weight coming back down. Tummy is feeling back to normal after yesterday. Still a tad bloated, but no pain or discomfort from it. Unfortunately, my usual Monday morning sluggishness caught up to me and I slept straight through my alarm this morning! Didn't wake up until 2 minutes after I usually hop on the computer (other than any meetings, its flexible. Core hours are 9am-3pm and I choose how I want to make up the remainder of my 9hour work day. So not "late" per se, but late to my own self-set schedule). Obviously, no workout due to that. Will see how things go this evening and take the pup for a walk. I set an extra alarm tomorrow to be sure I don't miss another morning workout and I've even planned the workout already so there's no reason not to do it! Lunch is planned out and unsure dinner but it's TacoTuesday in the house so I'm sure it'll be some type of Mexican-inspired fare. At least it's homemade and I can generally account for everything in the food log.

8/17: 214.9!
I got a new scale. After much deliberation I decided to go with this weight. My old scale said 217.5 three times this morning. The new scale said 214.9 three times this morning. So the only thing I had was a 10 pound bag of cat food to calibrate. The old scale said “error” when I weighed the cat food and the new scale said 10.1 pounds. Since I will be using the new scale from here on out, I went with the new scale reading.8 -

/not a blasted thing/ busy all day yesterday with work and Dr appointment. Starting (just starting mind you) to get back to enjoying the feeling that I am hungry (First World Hungry, not really hungry.) This has been essential to progress for me in the past.
When I gain weight, I usually let my eyes decide (see food diet) if I am going to eat it, not my hunger/common sense.

I like to track averages due to my wild fluctuations. For the same reason, I like to weigh daily so I can see the lows from time to time. It gives me hope.8 -

Following you now! My username is the same on Peloton. Looking forward to seeing you on the bike!
@ashleycarole86 @pezhed Will you both tell us more about Peloton? Equipment? Space requirements (I have a lower ceiling in my basement)? Subscription?3 -
@_JeffreyD_ sure! The footprint of the bike is pretty small, like a spin bike. Their site specifies 8' ceiling requirement which sounds about right. We have pretty low basement ceilings and my 6'4" husband can ride no problem. They also have a treadmill and some weight training thing available but I just have the bike for now, and that's all you need for most of the cycling workouts. The subscription is a little expensive. It just went up to $44/month and you basically have to have it if you have the bike (to get the classes to stream to the big display on it). If you don't have the bike I believe they have a subscription option at $12.99 per month. You can use other bikes but their display shows your cadence and resistance and calculates an output for your rides, which is used to rank you on a leaderboard or to measure your own progress. For both subscription options you can do classes through your phone/tablet/laptop. I cast mine to the TV through Chromecast when I do non-bike classes. They offer strength training (so a set of dumbbells is useful), yoga, meditation, outdoor running/walking, treadmill running/walking/hiking, and other cardio classes. You can participate in challenges to earn badges and they have some programming to help you progress. It's hard to convey how great it is but I absolutely love it. I do all of my workouts through the app/bike. I hardly even walk my dogs without turning on an outdoor walk anymore. If you want to try out the app subscription for a couple of months for free, here is a referral link. You also get a 30 day trial with the bike after you purchase it, but I've heard the return process can be a headache.4
